Teller Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I am absolutely thrilled that the greatest rivalry in all of sports comes to our backyard, FedEx Field, this year. And I'm absolutely ecstatic that I'll be able to cross attending this game off of my "Sports Bucket List." I get chills just thinking about it. The Cadets and Mids parading across the field, the flyovers from both branches, the parachute teams, the POTUS in attendance, and the fact that the onfield "combatants" will leave the field to stand side-by-side in defense of this great nation. I simply cannot wait to experience everything that makes this game so great. Who else is going? Who ya got? And of course.... ---------- Post added December-8th-2011 at 11:48 AM ---------- Unis: http://eye-on-collegefootball.blogs.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/24156338/31951059 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renaissance Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Wow. Pro combat jerseys that I actually think look nice. (With the exception of the font used for the Navy numbers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the Navy helmet though. And the Army stenciled number font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teller Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 Exactly, Kaos. That's what any self-respecting young man or woman with military aspirations should do...."Be at Army." :finger: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redskins Diehard Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Beat Navy! I'll be there. Probably for the 9th time including the 4 we won during my time at the MILITARY academy. edit: Has anyone seen the time for the "march on"? It is usually well before game time so if you want to see it be prepared to get in early. Good stories about what goes on in those formations...oh the memories!

Redskins Diehard Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 "March On" is 11:30 - 12:30 And the bad thing is that if you go in to watch that then you can't leave and re-enter for the 2:30 kickoff....at least that was the policy in Philly.1 and a butt days until Army BEATS the HELL out of Navy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Kaos Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I'd like to take in all the traditions but what in the hell am I going to do at FedEx for 2 hours :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you could find a cheap scalp ticket to gain readmission? I don't know. But 2 hours to sit around after the march on will stink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I saw some on one of the aftermarket ticket sites but can't confirm. To me seeing the March On's is probably worth 20 bucks or so...but not being in the stadium from 1130 until the end of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airborneskins Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I was looking forward to going to this game this year (it is also on my sports Bucket List), but sadly, I was deployed in November, so I will miss it. For those that are going to se ethe March on, please take pictures. That is one thing that I really like about the traditions for both acadamies. Oh and GO ARMY!

But the tickets won't be nearly as cheap as a Redskins game. ---------- Post added December-9th-2011 at 07:07 AM ---------- When is the game? What time?Go Army!!! Saturday 2:30 Beat Navy!!!!

skinsmarydu Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I have never been to RFK or FedEx ( I call it RedEx), and would give almost anything to do nothing there for 2 hours!!! And I didn't do a whole lot of important stuff when I was in, but GO NAVY!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC9 Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Went to the one in Baltimore in 2001 (I think that's when it was), it was a blast. Can't make it this year, but I definately recommend it to any real college football fans, triple option fans, or servicemen and women. GO ARMY!

Teller Posted December 9, 2011 Author Share Posted December 9, 2011 The cadets march on at 11:24 (don't want anyone to be late if they go in) and the mids at 12:04. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
